Neuhaus im Wienerwald is a small village in Lower Austria, and this note is a product of the acute coin shortage that gripped Austria-Hungary in the final years of the First World War. Municipal authorities across the empire — from market towns to tiny rural communes — were authorized to issue small-denomination Notgeld to keep local trade moving after silver and copper coins vanished from circulation almost entirely by 1917. Three local officials signed this note: the Bürgermeister, the Vize-Bürgermeister, and a Gemeinderat, the minimum quorum needed to give it official standing.
